Reduces infrastructure costs through more productive use of server cores and memory
Ideal solution for critical I/O-intensive workloads
Speed up concurrent data access by removing serial chokepoints that cause delays
How It Works
MaxParallel™ for Windows Server® makes workloads more responsive and productive by removing a number of software chokepoints responsible for sluggish behavior and underutilized resources. It’s especially effective during peak periods when many users or tasks compete for data access. Under these conditions, systems tend to bog down as simultaneous requests are serialized waiting on previous requests to complete.

Delays & waste caused by normal serial scheduling
AFTER
8 CORES | ALL PUT TO WORK
It’s quicker in parallel with DataCore
DataCore’s plug-and-play software schedules independent access to data in parallel, eliminating much of the queueing delays at the root of the problem. The process puts idle cores to work on these high-priority I/O-intensive demands to take full advantage of available resources.
System Requirements:
- Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, 2012, 2012 R2 or 2016 Operating Systems in Standard or DataCenter editions
- 4 or more vCPUs (virtual CPUs or physical cores)
Improvements visible at a glance
The built-in dashboard contrasts key performance indicators before and after MaxParallel services have been turned on. The white lines record the initial conditions. The blue lines and percentage numbers reveal the improvements.
The three speedometers on the top display the number of read and write requests per second, and the total I/O Operations per second. (IOPs).
The lower speedometer tracks total throughput in Megabytes/second. The lower two bar graphs on the left and center display average read and write latency. These are important measures of system responsiveness and productivity.
